7th revelation: The root of evil. What makes evil and sin and where did they originate? Evil and sin are such because God himself has labeled them as such. How did God decide what was evil? I believe God decided what was evil by observing ALL of creations through ALL of time and the things that cause extinction, destruction within a species, and mass destrustion were the things he labeled as evil/sin and to not be done. This was so that man could live long upon the earth. We are expected to overcome our animal instincts. We have the opportunity to live according to God's will and help to expand and grow heaven. God needs nothing from us. He can create and recreate as he wishes. He LOVES mankind and wishes for us to join him for eternity. It's our choice. God bless you

Are you Mormon?

Anything that opposes God's will is evil in my opinion and is sin or sinful. God gave us free will. He gave even the angels free will it seems since one of them chose something that was not in God's will. We have free will, so we can choose to sin apart from God's will. In the new creation I believe our will shall become one with God's, so that we will not have free will apart from his. Now we do, but Christians use their free will to choose to have a will within God's will.

This is getting repetitive. Anyway, we'll be made like Christ in the new creation. I believe we'll obey God, and that there will be no desire or inclination to sin.

I do have a question for you, as a means for consideration.

When is the new creation?

By new creation I mean the new heavens and the new earth, but I was a little slack in my response because I do not remember the exact time when we will receive our heavenly bodies. I believe it may very well be during Christ's reign in the old creation (present-day cosmos).

GOD GAVE HIS CREATIONS A FREE WILL. LUCIFER SEPERATED HIMSELF FROM GOD'S AUTHORITY OVER HIM AS CREATOR, AND CHOOSE TO REBEL AND DECIDED TO WAR AGAINST GOD AND DID NOT WIN THE THRONE OF GOD BUT WAS CAST OUT WITH A THIRD OF HIS FOLLOWERS. SCRIPTURE SAYS MAN THINKETH EVIL WITHIN HIS HEART CONTINUALY. WHEN SATAN WAS CAST OUT, HE IS AN EVIL SPIRIT, THAT SOME TIMES COMES IN THE FORM OF AN ANGLE OF LIGHT, THE FALSE APPEARANCE OF WHAT HE USED TO BE, BUT ALONG WITH THE EVIL. EVIL CAME AS THE FALL FROM HEAVEN AND HAS BEEN HERE EVERSINCE WORKING INIQUITY IN MANS HEART WITHOUT JESUS, THERE IS AN EMPTY PLACE THAT SATAN LIKES TO FILL.
